Happy 6th Birthday Jocelyn!
We missed having Daddy here to celebrate Jocelyn's birthday, but are so proud of how hard he works to support our family and serve our country. We love you and miss you very much, Daddy!
Jocelyn enjoyed her birthday breakfast in bed. She requested powered sugar donuts and chocolate milk. While she was eating breakfast in bed, she asked me what time of day she was born.
I had a picture of the birth announcement that said she was born at 10:54, but it didn't say if it was a.m. or p.m., so I emailed Grandma Cathy to find out exactly what time Jocelyn was born. We are so grateful that we can contact her whenever a question comes up.
Jocelyn was thrilled to read the following email from Grandma Cathy...
Her birthday started on July 8th at about 11:30 p.m. Keisha was having contractions so she and Brittani and I, got dressed then headed to the hospital. It was a clear and beautiful night and the moon was full, so we decided that Jocelyn would be our little moon dancer and we sang, "what a wonderful night for a moon dance", on the way there. But Jocelyn decided she was going to come with the morning sunshine instead and was born at 10:54 a.m. She then became our little Sun Dancer. I watched as they delivered her and I went with her to the nursery while they tended to Keisha. She was perfect and so beautiful. God had truly created another little miracle.
Thank you for giving her all the extra hugs and kisses but mostly for loving her as you do.
Grandma Cathy
